I do not wear shoes with long shoe laces. Last year I took the cub out in the pasture to take a picture of it with my horse. Getting off the tractor to open the gate my shoe lace cought on the parking brake tab. did a face plant video camera went flying out of my hand luckily I didn't get hurt. But you know I jumped right back up to see if anyone had seen me
Hope you heal up quick Billy

Yeah
Just think of how fast I could have painted it Cub Red
I found the right color at Tractor Supply price was pretty good too 23 Smackers plus 9 dollars shipping and I got the pint of hardner too 13 bucks
Ice works good swelling going down
if I can stay off it I will be back to work shortly
Thanks for the well wishes
Tony

I got some suggestions...... things you can do sitting down:
adjust the valves
drain the radiator (or come over here and try to get the drilled out plug out of my bolster),
change the oil in the final drives (if ya dont have anything mounted on them)
change the oil in the tranny
spiff up the shifter (GW has a great write up on it)
replace the bearing and seal on the PTO (getting it back in can provide hours of fun and enjoyment, if it is easy... take it out and try it again!)
And when you are recovered, the crutches make a useful tool for getting a mower out from under a Cub.
Get well soon!

Sprains
Jostev, as you get older, you'll be amazed at how long the little injuries can last. And to top it off, they keep coming back!
After about age 32, it's a foregone conclusion that your metabolism has slowed to the point that your cells no longer replenish themselves as quickly as they senesce. Although it sounds like a great way to lose weight, it doesn't quite work that way.
Tony, get yourself an air cast, pump it up to a comfortable level, and you can get back to work. Sprains are worse than fractures depending on the severity, but I've been able to work with an air cast on with an ankle that had me laid up for 6 months without it otherwise!

Allen has a point. I got one of them thar aircasts and they are quite the piece of kit..

I did a search on Air Cast -- wow did they ever change that site since September....

This might work for you, but I haven't tried it yet -- Ankle Sprain Care Kitâ„¢
Now this is the newest improvement to the one I had... and boy does it work great... FP Walkerâ„¢
The only problem is that here in Canada they are not cheap... $175.00 plus 15%HST which puts it over $200.00 bucks.. they are significantly cheaper in the US...
I have to order a new lining for mine. Here they want $100.00 bucks... gotta see if I can get one stateside...
